Braeden looked for short offense and pass-byes early, but connected on a single and threatened near-fall to secure a takedown before the period ended. In the 2nd, Davis chose down and escaped. With a minute left, Davis shot another single from space and finished. Lujan chose down in the 3rd and escaped after Davis earned 2:01 RT—there was no further scoring as Davis seemed to be favoring his right hand after an exchange. 8-1 Decision.

Davis definitely seemed concerned about his hand—during and after the match.
